Signing Off I arrived at St. Vincent Ferrer on a very hot August day in 2010. I flew in to LaGuardia and took a cab to the Priory. After lugging my bags up to my room, I went to the church. Entering from the vestibule, I encountered the late Dorothy Cunningham who welcomed me brightly and then calmly turned and made her way toward the accessible door and out into 66th street. The sequencing of this event suggested to me that for her, this greeting was the latest of many, given graciously, to the numerous Dominicans who had walked through the decades with her here. More than a facility to manage, or an artistic heritage to curate, or even a group of souls to serve, I had arrived at the edge of a stream of life, flowing serenely on its own from 1867 until the day Jesus returns. For a few months I sat down on the bank and watched the people pass by walking firmly, but helped forward by the current. There in the crowd were Dominican women and men, and along side them traveled Park Avenue laity, Jackson Heights laity, etc. I saw financiers and nurses, grand dames and personal assistants. Couples moved in the current with singles, widows, and retirees, and the stream was not quiet, like mountain water passing over rocks; it resonated with countless dialects and tones of voice. At Mass time I would get up and talk to those out there in the flow, giving them my best encouragement. But mostly I just marveled at all this life, from my safe perch of newness. Finally, on the First Sunday of Advent of 2010, I stepped into the stream and started walking. I had decided there was something I could add to this life, and so I wrote a letter for the Bulletin talking about the season and announcing that I was going to give a Parish Advent Retreat. What I contributed turned around and gave shape to my whole life. In those days I had to have the letter to Pat Keegan by Thursday noon so that it could be edited, copied and inserted, by hand, into each Bulletin. All too often, my slowness left me stuffing bulletins myself on Saturday morning. In these pages I have tried to explain and invite, clarify and correct, honor and thank, announce and apologize. The variety in tone captures, for me, the expanse of life in the stream itself, so that what began as a walk became an immersion. As the stream passed through the narrow canyons of merger and pandemic, I was no longer a contributor to its life – the stream became my life, and I drew far more from it, than I put into it with my many words. Now, after I do not know how many issues, it is time to sign off on the last letter. Let me offer my humble gratitude to my editors over the years who have looked up from a missing word and said so charitably, “your mind is moving faster than your fingers!” The production of the letter has itself been a current carrying many insights shared. Indeed, as we have walked along together, my editors have saved me from countless shoals of typographical calamity and led me to the limpid water of clear expression. Thanks also to those who have taken the time to read these reflections and comment on them: please know that the encouragement and challenge have been bracing and refreshing. I have written to you and about you, and in the writing have come to know you, and myself. Next Sunday I will be back on the bank, amazed at the stream passing on out of sight. I think there will be no regret for words left unsaid, for departure does not break a bond that no longer needs words. Summer Peace! Fr. Walter
This Week of Grace
June 27 – July 3, 2021
General Intention
• Pray for our Parish and Dominican Communities in this week of change.
• Pray for Fr. Peter Martyr Yungwirth who arrives this week to begin his service as Pastor.
• Pray for Fr. Frassati Davis who has traveled to Columbus to begin parish ministry at our Parish of St. Patrick.
• Pray for Br. Martin Davis who has been assigned to our Community of St. Joseph in Greenwich Village. From
there he will commute to teach at St. Vincent Ferrer High School.
June 27 The Thirteenth Sunday of the Year
Religious Liberty Week 2021
• This observance began last Monday and concludes this week on the Feast of Sts. Peter and Paul. The days
from June 22 to June 29 embrace three feasts of Saints who spoke truth to power, which is a central function
of Religious liberty.
• St. Thomas More and St. John Fisher (June 22) refused their assent to legislation of Henry VIII separating
England from the jurisdiction of the Holy See.
• St. John the Baptist (June 24) challenged King Herod regarding the legality of his marriage.
• St. Peter and St. Paul challenged institutional religious authority regarding its treatment of the Messiah.
• The religious freedom we enjoy makes it possible for members of every faith to carry out this sacred and
difficult ministry of truth.
• Pray for all whom the Holy Spirit moves to take this Holy Risk.
June 28 St. Irenaeus of Lyons, Bishop and Martyr
• St. Irenaeus, c. 130-202, served as Bishop of Lyons. During his ministry he helped the Church arrive at the
“canon” of the New Testament. This involved the discernment of those Christian texts which are in fact
bearers of Divine Revelation. Upon these we draw preaching, teaching, meditation, and contemplation in
confidence.
• Pray for a Church unity grounded in Scripture.
• Pray for Scripture Scholars.
June 29 Sts. Peter and Paul, Apostles (Solemnity)
• Pray that the Lord may bless the “Petrine” ministry of Pope Francis.
• On this Feast of St. Paul pray that more and more people may accept the complete gift of the Redemption.
• Below find the splendid solemn blessing for this feast:
May almighty God bless you,
for he has made you steadfast in Saint Peter's saving confession
and through it has set you on the solid rock of the Church's faith.
R. Amen.
And having instructed you
by the tireless preaching of Saint Paul,
may God teach you constantly by his example
to win brothers and sisters for Christ.
R. Amen.
So that by the keys of St Peter and the words of St Paul,
and by the support of their intercession,
God may bring us happily to that homeland
that Peter attained on a cross
and Paul by the blade of a sword.
R. Amen.
June 30 The First Martyrs of the Church of Rome
• Pray for the Church of Rome as she emerges from lockdown, and for the hastening of the time when
multitudes may again visit the tombs of the apostles and martyrs.
July 1 St. Junipero Serra, OFM, Missionary (Memorial)
• Pray for the Church on the West Coast, that it may be a force for good in these post-Covid days.
• Pray for Fr. Peter Martyr Yungwirth who today becomes Pastor of this Parish. May his service be long and
blessed.
July 3 St. Thomas, Apostle (Feast)
• Pray that we who walk by faith may recognize our Christ our Lord and God at the hour when we are called
upon to give an account of our hope.
• St. Thomas is the Patron of India, and we ask his prayers for the people of India in their struggle with Covid.
America! America!
God mend thine ev’ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law.
